I loved the hotel's prime location on the waterfront, as it offered stunning views of the busy bay. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, providing us with essentials like an iron and phone charger. The breakfast was delightful, with a good variety and everything kept warm, making it a highlight of my stay. The facilities were clean and well-maintained, and the comfortable bed ensured a restful night.
